...he's a bit over the hill for the hand-to-hand action stuff (much like Liam Neesen these days). I like the premise of the show so I'll watch it and suspend my disbelief of that one aspect.

Of course the nanny state protecting you is so much easier than changing the channel.

i agree with you. I especially don't understand why at this point in our lives " viewing rules" are important to anyone.

Yes we are watching - thanks for asking!

When I first saw it advertised, the title caught my attention (...gee, I wonder why???)

Like Speedie, the first thirty minutes or so didn’t seem very captivating but I decided to “hang in there.” Now, after episode 3, I can hardly wait for the next episode!

I may have to rewatch the episodes (I didn’t even notice the language or the steamy parts!). Damn.

That is a great show! Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow are great characters in it.

I’m enjoying it, can’t wait till the next episode. I love Jeff Bridges, he is also a pretty good musician as well as an actor.

i've left many of my 4 big network shows behind because of their blatant pandering. The ratings systems are aware of former loyal viewers who have left. Their metrics are so spot on they know the most rewound and favorite scenes of all the movies and shows. Basically all viewers should vote with their remotes. They're watching. The dropoff in awards shows ratings is killing them.

The quality of the acting, script, and cinematography are all very good. I’m enjoying it.

Yeah, it's developing into a good series. Jeff Bridges does a very good job.

Love Jeff Bridges, so will check it out. Seen Reacher and Ryan, now looking forward to Chris Pratt in The Terminal List July 1st on Amazon Prime Video.

I like it a lot. You’re right, very similar to Jack Ryan and a couple others. By the way, wasn’t there supposed to be another season of Jack Ryan?

I just wish all the episodes of The Old Man were available so I could really binge on it.
